There's no real functional difference between Gaviota and Nalimov.

The main difference is you don't need to look for Nalimov contact and ask him giving his «kind permission» to be able to add Tbs code into your engine. No such stupidity for GTBs! That's why I like it too! :geek:

I see. You have to kiss Nalimov's ass; Gaviota says just go ahead and use it.
